Now I can only assign functons to Button 1 (the green button), but can I also assign functions to other buttons (eg the up and down buttons)? In the Setting->Button, only I can chose the Button 1 only but no other button I can choose or add.
Thanks.
I do not think that you can do that. That's the beauty of touch phones, minimising button usage.
There's a software for that: AE Button Plus

Is it possible to assign a real close function to a hardware button?!
I am aware of the fact that you can set the functions of the four
hardware buttons and that there is an option "Ok/Close", but even
when I have Pocket Plus and Wisbar Advance installed, it still uses
the original Close function (which in fact just minimizes the application).
If it's possible to actually close an application by pressing for instance
the calendar button (the one under the "hang up" button), you can use
the phone for 80% of the time one handed. The start menu pops up
when you hold the calendar or contacts button and press the function
key and when you have an item highlighted, holding the function key
will bring up the option menu. Now I only want a way to actually close
an application by pressing a hardware button, cause the X button in
the right-top corner is a real pain in the......
I use AEBplus and I have SPB Plus 3.0 installed.
I assign the Calendar button as follows:
- press once for Agenda Fusion Week
- press twice for Close Application (not minimize)
- press three times for Suspend (equivalent to Power button)
It is really convenient.
But how do you assign "Close Application" to a button, cause I can't seem to find that option. Or is it because I'm using Pocket Plus 2.5, is it a new function in 3.0?
Ok, it's a function in Pocket Plus 3.0!! That makes me real happy . (Only it feels a bit unstable in comparison to 2.5, but thats what you get for messing with beta's)
I would like to program a couple of shortcuts but using the
START | SETTINGS | BUTTONS app.
It shows 5 buttons (plus Button 1 Hold)..but I can't make them work!
The first five are just labelled "button". So what button do these refer to?
The last is labelled "button 1(Hold)" which appears to be the call pickup/start button.
Can anyone shed light on the other five buttons??
Thanks
Are you using Spb Pocket Plus? If you are then this may be be adding the four additional buttons. I have no idea if they refer to the phone up/down, home and back buttons. What I wanted was the Volume Up/Down mapping.
I need to get round to contacting Spb support as there are lots of problems with Pocket Plus.
Based on the recommendations of others, I am using AE Button Plus.
No - I'm using the buit-in WM6 buttons assignment app.
The reason I asked was that I only have the Button 1 (Hold) showing. Spb adds in another4 buttons when their Extended Button functionality is enabled
Bump - I too would love to know how to assign other buttons to apps, in addition to the Call Pickup button (Long Press). I currently have this assigned to Comm Manager rather than Voice Dial.
If Button1 (Long Press) can be assigned to apps, then surely the Home and Back (Long Press) can be remapped too?
Got this device yesterday and am completely in love with it, but already finding it tedious to navigate to commonly used apps like Comm Manager and Camera.
AEB+ is the best solution: http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php
I have volume up mapped to: 1 press = up, 2 press = volume up, long press = plamp
volume down: 1 press = down, 2 press = volume down, long press = resco recorder
and OK/home on double press to rotate 90 degrees on toogle
AEB+ is commercial but the unregistered version has almost 100% functionality. I bought it as it's great even though I don't use the extra functions !
Excellent, thanks very much.
Still bugs me that the extra buttons don't appear in the built-in buttons assignment menu though. I think it's an oversight on HTC's part rather than intentional.
Hello,
I don't like this Home button on the Touch HD. I can get back to the today screen with the normal End Call button.
I am missing a startmenu button which I got used to over the last years. And the startmenu on this display is so far away from my thumb, that it makes one handed usage difficult.
Is there an easy way to reassign the Home buttion to the startmenu? The default Settings-->Buttons dialog offers only one long press customization. Can I enable the other buttons to get changed there?
Use aebuttons or mobilemagic, search a little for
A tool to change the buttons is AEButton Plus.
But the home key cannot be changed so far.
I concur with AE Button plus not being able to assign/reassign the home button
This is bad.
So we have to wait for a solution. I hope someone works on this.
The end call button and the home button are redundant.
Why have 2 buttons that primarily do the same thing? I know that the home button takes you to the main screen during a call where as pressing the end call will end it. But you could easily press the on-screen end call button, thus freeing up the home button to something more useful or customisable.
I guess HTC need to keep thier devices "conventional" looking to avoid scaring off potential pda newcomers!
in settings-buttons, I have only one button(button 1 Hold)-send.
but, I wanna also assign other buttons, home, window, back, end.
How can I add other options in button list.
I am currently using an HTC Evo that has CM10 that allows button remapping. I am using the "tile" or rather the far right button next to the "home" button as my menu button and I love it since every program has the menu button in a different place.
Is there a way to remap the press of the far right button to menu, and then have it so when it's held it performs its normal "tile" function? Thank you.
Anyone know about remapping the 3 buttons on the bottom?
